I sent a response to Jim's original email, but I don't think it got to
the list due to a misconfig in my outgoing filter.  Anyway, here's what I

Why not just run SpamAssassin before TMDA?  If you did that the only things
that would ever get to TMDA would be the stuff that got past SpamAssassin.
Consequently, the only things that could ever be in pending would have to
have been blessed by SpamAssassin.

This is the opposite scenario.  In this case the only stuff that you want
in pending is stuff that is "cursed" by SpamAssassin (i.e. stuff that
SpamAssassin thinks is spam).  Everything that's blessed by SpamAssassin
you want to be automatically delivered.

This can also be accomplished by running SpamAssassin before TMDA.  You'd
just have to configure something (a .qmail or .procmailrc) to automatically
deliver email that was blessed by SpamAssassin.  Everything else (the stuff
cursed by SpamAssassin) would be sent to TMDA.  Consequently, the only things
that could ever be in pending would have to have been cursed by SpamAssassin.

Cheers,
